I have just found the courage to come forward about sexual abuse that happened to me as a child.
Today was my initial assessment for counselling and it has scared me, they're allowed to pass on information if it relates to historic sexual abuse now, and further more I have a 4 year old daughter who is the absolute world to me.
I am now panicking that they're judging everything I tell them and they're going to pass it over to social services and have my daughter taken away. It has got me in tears, that as a victim, I am being judged on what I say which could conclude to safe guarding my daughter.
I am NC with the abuser, but have only been for the past 2-3 months. Before then I used to continue seeing him and I would take my daughter, I never ever left her unsupervised knowing what this person is like I always kept her by my side. Now I'm wishing that I'd of built the courage up sooner to say something. I am an idiot, why did I continue having a relationship with this person?
I've just dug myself a deeper hole haven't I?
Can someone please reassure me that they're here to support and not just take her away from me
